I think no ones up for the challenge Tony lol Congrats!........BTW It seems I have about $300-$400 left to spend on another mod but I'm having a hard time on choosing what! Any suggestions?.....as of now it's either a new grille or spoiler, but if i get a new grille i need a lower grille to match and if i get a spoiler i need new stripes -_____-

When you put on LT headers, make sure you buy new GM gaskets. Are any of you guys going to the car cruise at Sonic in Jensen Beach tonight?

Here is a picture of my Heritage Grille and lower Billet Grille.

What time is this car cruise, and what do they do?

I guess it starts about 5PM. I haven't been there. I just heard about it last week. What do you do at a car cruise, but look at cars and BS.

Jamie - you looking into just appearance mods with the 300?

You think about lowering it? you could probably find a good deal on here for springs for like 150/200... a spring install isnt THAT involved... you just need a spring compressor.. you could probably rent one for like 30/40 bucks - then you just need an alignment (50 bucks)

So if you get the springs and do the install yourself (or with some help) you should be in that ball park (300/400)


Whats your style/taste? have you done anything to the interior? you could see about having some of the parts painted...

theres also some really nice seat covers made by Iggee, they're based out of Cali - they make like a simulated leather/vinyl with colored inserts for the middle of the seats... I know the seat covers (front and rear) are about 400...

Dont know what your looking to do but just throwing some things out there for ya lol... I know the feeling of having a couple bucks burning a hole in your pocket lol...

I had some extra money so I bought a Street Scene front splitter and I'm having that and the stock rear diffuser painted gloss black now... paint for the two pieces was 175 and the splitter cost me 150... not bad for 325... should change the whole look of the car!

Side note - I tinted my taillights... almost everyone I asked said to go for it so I did...

I have enough taillight tint left over for someone else to do theirs... whoever wants it, it's yours - its not pre cut - its a 12x24 sheet of tint film... I took my taillights out to do it and it was really really easy to do with them off the car... anyone wants it or needs any help let me know... I had ordered "smoke" but it looks pretty dark.. not sure if its because the RS taillights are already a little darker or what but... I think it looks good...

After:


Side by side:


Dont mind the missing diffuser lol... it's at the paint shop

[Jaime068]

Nah I don't wanna lower it with my ground effects lol...my interior would be the last thing I do...did u?! Nice! I was going with street scenes gfx wit the splitter but changed my mind since the rear is just two small attachments

[BumbleBeeSS2009]

yeah I dont like the two rear pieces either which is why im going to piece together a kit since I like different pieces from different kits..

I got the street scene front splitter, looking at either the Razzi rear or the MPD1 rear... kinda like the smooth look of the MPD1 rear but might wait until they make a quad diffuser - as for the sides im still debating.. not crazy about the razzi sides.. too agressive for me - the street scene I dont like... I might just go GM sides... just have to see how they mate up to the other pieces....

Ok so no springs... and no interior.... looking for exterior stuff or go fast stuff?

Yea the street scene just didnt do it for me lol...that smooth rear valence would look great! I seen the photos of the red jewel one and was thinkin of getting the street scene gfx in combination with that smooth valence...changed my mind tho lol...Im going for looks, thought about performance but ur were right..besides I got the v6 so dont see the point in adding hp when it would be better just upgrading to an SS lol...If I can get my graphics shop to match the stripes on my car I'ma get the spoiler and just have them do me the two spoiler pieces so I wont have to replace my whole stripes.

Also, seen this video earlier and I really really like the idea of these halos!
they added foglight halos within the regular halos and it looks evil
